Beyond the light show, the 12 Pro packs significant hardware upgrades to handle the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chip. The cooling system now features a 130kPa output pressure—an 85 percent increase over previous iterations—complemented by a built-in fan and a vapor chamber. Memory options range from 12GB to 16GB of RAM, with storage capacities reaching up to 1TB. Powering these components is an 8,400mAh battery supported by 80W charging, though the removal of the 3.5mm headphone jack marks a notable departure for the series.
The display hits a 185Hz refresh rate, a first for a handset featuring an under-display selfie camera. While the 16-megapixel front sensor is effectively hidden, image quality remains hampered by forced AI beautification. Design-wise, the rear camera array sits flush under the glass panel, offering a clean aesthetic that contrasts with the internal clutter of the cooling system. With an IP69 rating for water resistance—excluding the vulnerable fan intake—the device positions itself as a premium gaming powerhouse. However, Redmagic has raised the entry price to $949, a $200 jump from the 11 Pro, with preorders opening November 12th.
